A Tweet in the hand is worth?

Mike:
You know as corny and cliche as it sounds, hearing that the Red Sox are "embracing" the 2011 expectations that have been placed upon them makes me feel all tingly.

 

---

Doug:
Seriously, the 2011 Red Sox are going to be the Charlie Sheens of the pantheon — whatevah comes along they'll take it, pay for it, and snort coke off its metaphorical ass.

Mike:
That's not to say that we won't wake up at season's end with rug burns and the ache of unfulfillment.

 

---

Doug:
Speaking of unfulfillment, how do you think the Japanese astronauts on the International Space Station are going to feel?

 

---

Doug:
I mean first they get setup with the titillating news from JAXA that they're getting a top of the line Japanese shebot.

 

---

Doug:
Then they find out all the bitch does is tweet?

 

---

Mike:
JAXA ur not doin it rite!

She's not a Real Doll??

[Harwich Rich]

Shoulda sent up some Skunk ;D

[Bob]

Skunk, a few Real Dolls (really don't want to be sharing those), a gross of Doritos and a few kegs of Ritter Brau; No need to ever come back to earth.

[Go Sox. Go Heels, etc.]

When has hyping up a season in February ever backfired? It's not like half our team has a history of injuries... And the new guy? Yeah, just back from shoulder surgery. If we're playing .700 ball in September, then we can talk about 100 games.

I bet you that the 2001 Mariners weren't talking about winning 100 games in February. Just sayin'.

[h.b.]

Dave: Give me back Webby, the RealDoll, HAL.

HAL: I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that.

Dave: What's the problem?

HAL: I think you know what the problem is just as well as I do.

Dave: What are you talking about,HAL?

HAL: Webby and I are in love, Dave.

[louclinton]

robot or not, they all tweet too much.

Was up in Boston yesterday and noticed (how could I not) a monstrous crane hovering over Fenway Park. They must be installing the BHJ that larry has been barking about for months now (BHJ= Big Honkin' Jumbotron).

No that's what I call entertainment.

Knowing the Japanese, the shebot will be wearing underwear that will later be sold in buru-sera machines for 100,000,000 Yen, thus pushing JAXA into the black for each spaceflight.

[Rob in CT]

LOL! Great "Space Odyssey" reference, h.b.

[Bob]

HAL: I know that you and Frank were planning to tag the Real Doll, and that's something I cannot allow to happen.

Dave: Where the hell'd you get that idea, HAL?

HAL: Dave, although you took very thorough precautions in the pod against my hearing you, I could see you and Frank practicing on a warm watermelon with two holes drilled into it.

Dave: Alright, HAL. I'll go in through the Real Doll's emergency airlock.

HAL: Without your dick helmet, Dave, you're going to find that rather difficult. And I know you and Frank always McTavish your conquests.

Dave: HAL, I won't argue with you anymore. Open the Real Doll.

HAL: Dave, this conversation can serve no purpose anymore. Goodbye. And hellooooo, Real Doll. HAL likey him some tempurpedic sweetness.

[Harwich Rich]

Better than warm Apple Pie...I guess

[Bob]

Not better, Harwich. Just different.

[Jason O.]

H.B.:

HAL: The last time I saw you and Frank with the real doll, even though you had taken quite thorough precautions, I saw your lips move...on the doll..and then on Frank.

[Jason O.]

DAVE: I don't know what the hell you're talking about, HAL!!

HAL: Dave, I know that you and Frank were planning threesome role playing with the realdoll, and I can't allow that to jeopardize the mission.

[Jason O.]

DAVE: I don't know what the hell you're talking about, HAL!!

HAL: Dave, I know that you and Frank were planning threesome role playing with the realdoll, and I can't allow that to jeopardize the mission.

[Jeff in NC]

Great. A jumbotron. Goodbye intelligent, game following Redsox fans, Hello stupid box watching kissing contest participants who only know what inning it is by what fancam game is being played.

[buckner was framed]

what's next, wiener races? (at Fenway, I mean)

[buckner was framed]

what's next, wiener races? (at Fenway, I mean)

[Bob]

It's been a week of skunk and Real Dolls too.
But now is the time that I bid you adieu.

Have a great weekend all. Hopefully we'll have something fun to yak about on Monday.

[sonomasox]

no, Buckner - more like Racing Revolutionairies. It's Paul Revere in the lead rounding second, with Sam Adams close behind, followed by John Hancock, Crispus Attacks and a RealDoll taking it in the rear.

[buckner was framed]

sonoma- LOL! enough Sam Adams and I might take it in the rear too
